You guys ever pondered how they got King Kong all the way to New York?
Because somehow that came to my mind all of a sudden.

Yeah, I've always wondered that.

Nah, Kong just grew wings and he flew to New York. That's what happened.

Yep.
Seriously, Peter Jackson himself said that it's one of those things that's best left to the imagination.

Oh THAT T-Rex cliff thing - yep, I remember that from the time.
On Kong...the recent joke footage that went around showed Kong actually pushing the Venture back to Noo Yoik, which was fun.
It's not too much of a stretch though...the Venture had a pretty large cargo hold, or either they had him on the upper deck. Either way, you can bet that they used up all of that chloroform on the way back!!

In Mad Magazine they just used Kong for a boat and floated on him all the way back to New York.

And it's way more believable than the T-Rex steering the ship back to land all by himself!

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
